Getting around the task-artifact cycle: how to make claims and design by scenario

J. Carroll, M. Rosson
Computer Science
TOIS
1 April 1992

We are developing an “action science” approach to human-computer interaction (HCI), seeking to better integrate activities directed at understanding with those directed at design. Expand

Scenario-based design

Computer Science
2002

People need to develop new vocabularies for discussing and characterizing designs in terms of the projected activities of the intended users. Expand

Paradox of the active user

J. Carroll, M. Rosson
Computer Science
1987

We discuss two empirical phenomena of computer use: (1) people have considerable trouble learning to use computers (e.g., Mack, Lewis and Carroll, 1983; Mantei and Haskell, 1983), and (2) their skill tends to asymptote at relative mediocrity (Nielsen, Mack, Bergendorff, and Grischkowsky, 1986).

Notification and awareness: synchronizing task-oriented collaborative activity

J. Carroll, D. Neale, Philip L. Isenhour, M. Rosson, D. McCrickard
Computer Science
Int. J. Hum. Comput. Stud.
